<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $1.08</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $2.57

1.Do you think my Conti-Bet is right? or would you have checked in this situation?
2.After getting an open Ender do you would bet the same like me at the Turn or would you check to see a freecard? I thought, if i get my straight, i want to get pay off so i bet about 2/3 PS.

Preflop is just fine, we have the button, a Q high suited connector (yes, it's officially connected, yay!) and only 3 opponents... Folding is waaay to nitty if you ask me, and I much rather raise to steal here or later in the hand than make a weakish call. I like....

1) I check this flop as I would with with a T in the hole. Your opponents must put you on a range that doesn't have that many T's, so we're asking to be floated. I take one decent stab at the turn and give up to action.

2) You don't have an open ender, you have a gutshot.

As played: check turn, fold river.

Might as well draw to the gutshot for free on the turn, fold river.

Raise more pf, bet the flop, check the turn.

Pf is a very standard raise, as is the flop bet. That flop didnīt hit too many hands. On the turn he isnīt folding anything he called the flop with unless you and him have a pretty extensive history. Take the free card, it also gives you more room to manouvre on the river, whether you want to get the money in or not when you hit. You might be drawing dead you know.

If you have a T in the hole, and as you say, your Vill's can't put you on very many T's... then betting the flop seems much much better to me.

PF is fine, depending on the table -- if it's a bunch of calling stations, then I wouldn't do it -- or I would raise more just to make sure I could take the pot down there. C-bet on flop is fine, turn should check. River fold.
